CLASSIC MERINGUE
Steps:
- Whisk the egg whites, sugar and vanilla together in the bowl of a heavy mixer or another metal bowl. Place over a pan of gently simmering water. Whisk constantly until the mixture is hot and the sugar is melted, about 4 minutes.
- Remove the bowl from the pan and beat with a mixer until the meringue is completely cool, white and fluffy, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spread the meringue over the top of the pie, leaving it swirled with peaks. Bake until the tips of the meringue are browned, about 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Gently fold in 1 cup of ground walnuts, if desired. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a plain -inch tip with the meringue. Pipe the meringue onto the parchment in 1-inch mounds. Bake until dry and crisp, about 1 to 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a glass or another round object that is 3 inches in diameter as a guide to draw 6 circles on the parchment paper.
- Turn the paper over. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a i-inch star or plain tube with the meringue. Starting at the inside rim of one of the circles, pipe meringue in a spiral, filling the circle. Form the sides of the shell by piping 2 circles on top of each other around the rim. Repeat with the remaining circles. Bake until dry and crisp, about 1 to 2 hours. Fill with whipped cream and fresh berries.

CLASSIC MERINGUE PIE TOPPING
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a mixing bowl-preferably stainless steel or glass- beat the egg whites and a pinch of salt using the low speed of an electric mixer until they are frothy.
- Add the cream of tartar and increase the mixer speed to medium. Continue beating until the whites are fluffy, with large bubbles forming around the edges.
- With the mixer running, add the sugar a few teaspoons at a time, mixing the sugar in completely before adding more. Continue until all of the sugar is incorporated.
- Continue beating until the peaks are firm but still glossy. Add the vanilla .
- Spoon the meringue onto the hot pie filling. If you are topping an unbaked pie filling, have it at room temperature (not cold) before you top it with the meringue. Spread the meringue to the crust edge to seal the filling in. Fluff it with the back of a spoon to make decorative peaks across the pie.
- Bake at 350 F/180 C/Gas Mark 4 for about 12 minutes for 2 egg whites or about 15 minutes for 3 egg whites.
- Serve and enjoy.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 110C/ 100C fan/gas ¼.
- Line 2 baking sheets with non-stick liner or parchment paper (meringue can stick on greaseproof paper and foil).
- Tip 4 large egg whites into a large clean mixing bowl (not plastic). Beat them on medium speed with an electric hand whisk until the mixture resembles a fluffy cloud and stands up in stiff peaks when the blades are lifted.
- Now turn the speed up and start to add 115g caster sugar, a dessertspoonful at a time. Continue beating for 3-4 seconds between each addition. It's important to add the sugar slowly at this stage as it helps prevent the meringue from weeping later. However, don't over-beat. When ready, the mixture should be thick and glossy.
- Sift one third of the 115g icing sugar over the mixture, then gently fold it in with a big metal spoon or rubber spatula. Continue to sift and fold in the remaining icing sugar a third at a time. Again, don't over-mix. The mixture should now look smooth and billowy.
- Scoop up a heaped dessertspoonful of the mixture. Using another dessertspoon, ease it on to the baking sheet to make an oval shape. Or just drop them in rough rounds, if you prefer.
- Bake for 1 ½-1 ¾ hours in a fan oven, 1 ¼ hours in a conventional or gas oven, until the meringues sound crisp when tapped underneath and are a pale coffee colour.
- Leave to cool on the trays or a cooling rack. (The meringues will now keep in an airtight tin for up to 2 weeks, or frozen for a month.) Serve two meringues sandwiched together with a generous dollop of softly whipped double cream.
